Each year on October 7th, the world celebrates World Cotton Day. A moment to recognise the incredible impact of cotton as a natural, renewable, and biodegradable fibre.
Cotton supports millions of people globally from smallholder farmers to textile workers and plays a vital role in building more sustainable, low-impact supply chains.
At Cotton Bag Co, cotton is at the heart of everything we do. We’re proud to create GOTS® certified, ethically produced reusable cotton bags that combine sustainability with beautiful design.
Why Cotton Matters More Than Ever
Cotton isn’t just a fabric it’s a fibre that connects people, communities, and the planet.
Here’s why it remains so important:
- Biodegradable and natural: Cotton decomposes naturally, reducing plastic waste and pollution.
- Supports livelihoods: Millions of families depend on cotton farming for income and opportunity.
- Empowers communities: As a poverty-alleviating crop, cotton creates sustainable employment across developing regions.
- Reusable and renewable: Unlike synthetics, cotton can be repurposed, recycled, and reused, ideal for long-lasting bags and textiles.
What Happens on World Cotton Day?
World Cotton Day 2025 brings together global stakeholders, farmers, producers, brands, and sustainability advocates to share knowledge and celebrate cotton’s impact.
This year’s conversations focus on:
- Sustainability and climate resilience in cotton production
- Empowering women in cotton supply chains
- Innovation in sustainable textiles
- Partnerships between brands and growers for fair, traceable cotton
